Three different white liberals in authority roles within universities and activist movements have apologized this month for pretending to be black — and they aren’t the only ones to get caught lying about their racial identities.
Satchuel Cole, an Indianapolis racial justice activist, apologized on Wednesday for misrepresenting her racial identity.
“Friends, I need to take accountability for my actions and the harm that I have done. My deception and lies have hurt those I care most about. I have taken up space as a Black person while knowing I am white,” Cole wrote on Facebook.
“I have used Blackness when it was not mine to use. I have asked for support and energy as a Black person. I have caused harm to the city, friends and the work that I held so dear.”
Cole’s apology came after a local black news website wrote that she had been “exposed for posing as a Black Woman.”
Cole is just the latest white, liberal woman to apologize for pretending to be black.
University of Wisconsin-Madison graduate student CV Vitolo-Haddad apologized and announced her resignation from her teaching position on Sept. 8, admitting that she is actually of Italian heritage, despite repeatedly claiming to be black.
George Washington University history professor Jessica Krug, who specialized in “Africa and the African Diaspora,” apologized on Sept. 3 for presenting herself as black for years.
“To an escalating degree over my adult life, I have eschewed my lived experience as a white Jewish child in suburban Kansas City under various assumed identities within a Blackness that I had no right to claim: first North African Blackness, then US rooted Blackness, then Caribbean rooted Bronx Blackness,” Krug wrote in a Medium post.

The person “they care about most” is themselves
Which is why they pulled the charade in the first place
Some of us don’t pretend, we just “self-identify” and carry on as usual.
I am a black woman who is a lesbian, but I look and act just like an ordinary middle-aged white guy, except for the occasional head swivel (always gets laughs for some reason).
I discovered my true identity when I accidentally went to a Joan Armatrading concert in Oakland back in the early 80s.
Just passing.
“Well there’s only one thing to do then, kill yourself.”
But first she has to give all of her stuff to BLM. All of it.
Black Lies Matter.
It’s where the race frauds belong.
The big thing in the mid-20th century was light-skinned African Americans “passing for white.” Now it is the opposite. That should indicate which side is considered more desirable by those looking for successful academic and/or corporate careers.
You are 100% correct. White privilege is a complete sham.
Boy this is Awkward.
I’m BLACJK and I’ve been pretending to be WHITE here on FR for 10 years!!
It hasn’t been easy applying all of the makeup every day.
Even though none of you can see me.
Come to think of it, what a colossal waste of time and effort :)
Ekkk!
Someone bring me eye bleach!
I was wondering what’s wrong with this. Now I get it. The evil whitebread takes the place that a genuine black would have had by affirmative action. Imagine if reparations were in effect! How many whitebreads would try to pass as black so as to avoid the tax and get the benefit!
I’m Trans-Black.
Why aren’t more black people objecting to this?
“My deception and lies have hurt those I care most about. I have taken up space as a Black person while knowing I am white”
Try applying such a statement to a trans-woman. “I have taken up space as a woman while knowing I am a man and caused pain to real women.”
Affirmative action beats white privilege.
Talcum X strikes again
Joan frowns on your shenanigans!
It must be tough to want to belong to something so badly.
I love it when she calls me names!
